What is the capacity of the captive solar power plant being developed for the Namo Bharat project?
- A.50 MW
- B.75 MW
- C.110 MW
- D.150 MW
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 110 MW. NCRTC is developing a captive solar power plant of this size, and it also runs a programme called Solar on Track, so that the corridor costs less to operate and places a lighter burden on the environment. The two steps were among the achievements shown at Namo Bharat Diwas in New Delhi, where a film traced the milestones of the project along with its work on multimodal links and on first-mile and last-mile travel. Options A, B and D name capacities that were not announced for the project. Questions on infrastructure often pair a corridor with its green energy plan, so candidates should remember the pairing of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor with the captive solar plant, and should also keep in mind the ridership of over 1.1 lakh commuters a day.
